Project Information

Directed by Makaela Milburn

Cast includes: Annie Lareau, Brenda Joyner, and Peter Dylan O’Connor

Designed by Ahren Buhmann, Peter Dylan O’Connor, and Rob Witmer

Actor and playwright Annie Lareau combines humor and compassion to reflect on her experience surrounding the Pan Am 103 bombing over Lockerbie, Scotland. Meant to be on the flight with 35 Syracuse University classmates, she was left behind in London. Her narrative weaves the lives of young artists with the voices of Lockerbie locals who responded to the tragedy, set against the backdrop of prophetic nightmares and a terrorist plot. Through grief, media scrutiny, and self-punishment, Lareau’s journey becomes a poignant tribute to treasuring relationships in an unpredictable world.

Now Performing at the Edinburgh Fringe, Scotland, July 30th-August 25th

Edinburgh Fringe Festival

The Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the world’s largest arts festival, is a beacon for performers, showcasing thousands of shows across genres—from comedy and theater to music and dance. Held every August in Scotland’s capital, it offers unparalleled exposure for artists and the chance to be discovered by critics, agents, and global audiences. The Fringe can be a launchpad for projects and careers as it is known as a hub of artistic innovation. 

However, the Fringe comes with steep costs for performers. Venue hire, accommodation during the peak tourist season, travel, and marketing add up to tens of thousands of dollars. Some grants are available, but even if awarded unfortunately won’t cover all the costs. Through a combination of grants and individual contributions we are working to raise $50,000 for this production and this is where you can help!

Because no single event has ever bridged Scotland and the United States in this way, the stories of those we lost will always connect us.
